"Moving the grave? Grandma, this is a big deal for our family! Have you thought about it?"
"My child, I've thought about it for a long time. People always have random thoughts when they get old. I dreamed about your dad again last night!"
My grandma held my hand and said sincerely: "Back then, our family's conditions were not good, so your dad was buried in a hurry without choosing a geomantic treasure land. It has almost become a problem for me after so many years! You have been going there all these years. I send money to my family, and now that my family’s conditions are better, I’m thinking about putting this matter into practice.”
I frowned and thought about it, then nodded in agreement.
The location where my parents are buried is indeed ordinary. Their graves are "very remote", on the edge of a deserted trail in the mountains, with wasteland behind and cliffs in front. It is cold and cold all year round and there is no sunlight.
It would be a good thing if I could find a real Feng Shui treasure land to bring my parents and grandpa together.
"Nai, if we want to do this, we have to find a good husband."
My grandma said: "Your Aunt Liu knows a very famous Mr. Baishi in the city. His surname is Liu and his nickname is Old God. I heard that three generations of his family have been doing this. I'll talk to your Aunt Liu later." Nao, let that gentleman come to our house tomorrow to have a look."
The next morning, around nine o'clock, I was chopping firewood in the yard when I heard Aunt Liu's loud voice.
"Xiao Feng! Xiao Feng, come out quickly! The gentleman from the city is here!"
My grandma and I hurriedly went out to greet her.
Aunt Liu was leading a man at the door. Mr. Liu was about 60 years old, with thin features and a bit of a hunchback.
My grandma greeted: "It's cold, Mr. Liu, come inside and warm yourself by the fire!"
After entering the room and taking a seat, I handed someone a cigarette.
Mr. Liu was not polite. He took it and smoked it. He puffed up and said, "Um... Master, moving tombs has been a major event since ancient times. It involves the luck and safety of your descendants, so , we must follow the rules in everything.”
"Isn't that right! What you said is so right, sir!"
My grandma said excitedly: "It's just because it's a big deal! We don't understand it! That's why we asked you, the old god, to help us handle it!"
"Oh! You're welcome. I don't dare to take the word "old god" seriously. Only three generations of our family have been eating this bowl of rice."
After that, Mr. Liu put on his reading glasses, took out a small notebook and a ballpoint pen from his pocket. He casually asked me: "I want to calculate the date. When did the owner leave? Because Why did you leave?"
My grandma's expression darkened, and she sighed and said, "On March 7, 1985, I accidentally fell while going into the mountains."
Mr. Liu listened and wrote and drew in the notebook. After a few minutes, he looked at the notebook and said with surprise: "That year only had 354 days! It was still the year of Yichou! There was no leap month! The owner's Jingzhe on March 7th An accidental death occurs around the time of the solar term. It just so happens that Jingzhe is the birthday of the mountain god. Anyone who dies unexpectedly in the mountains on this day will bless their descendants. This means that one of your descendants will be extremely wealthy!"
My grandma was so happy when she heard this.
Since I am the only descendant in our family, the rich person must be me.
I took a puff of the cigarette and thought, "Isn't this person a charlatan who has no real ability and only talks good words and eats and drinks?"
My mother is easy to fool, but I, Xiang Yunfeng, am not easy to fool.
I have always fooled others, no one can fool me.
So, I asked: "Um, sir, can you explain the process first so that I can prepare things in advance."
His face remained unchanged, he nodded and said: "You really need to prepare, you need a lot of things, some basic incense tribute, a basket of paper money, some gold and silver ingots, six feet of red cloth, three feet of black cloth, and white Fifteen pairs of gloves and red gloves each. In the afternoon you prepare your things first and find someone to take me up the mountain to see the old tomb and find a good location suitable for placing the new tomb."
There was nothing wrong with what he said. I said I would take him up the mountain to see the grave later, thinking that I would test him when we got there.
Mr. Liu then asked some more about the plot of our family, and then asked to go to the mountain to see the graves.
It was difficult to walk on the mountain road at this time of year, and the location where my parents were buried was off. It took more than two hours of walking on the mountain through thick snow to get there.
"Mr. Liu, look! It's that grave!" I pointed and said.
There were a lot of dead grass and branches in front of the grave, almost covering the tombstone. I felt a little guilty when I saw this, so I used my hands to clear away the debris in front of the grave.
Mr. Liu first walked around the tomb. During this period, he bent down to check from time to time. I didn't know what he was looking for.
After asking, he replied: "A grave that has been 20 years old is considered an old grave. I'll see if there are any holes or anything around it. I'm afraid that yellow skins will live in it. If the old graves are occupied by yellow skins, , that would be unlucky.”
"Is that there?" I asked nervously.
He shook his head: "Don't worry, I don't see it yet."
I breathed a sigh of relief and asked quickly: "As for the specific address of the new tomb, I need your help to find it. We must find a geomantic treasure."
He smiled and said to me: "After this person passed away, everyone wanted to find a Feng Shui treasure place. The question is where did there come from so many Feng Shui treasure places."
I hurriedly said: "Please pay more attention, the gift money will be abundant afterwards. If you find a good place, it will not be less than this amount!" After saying that, I made a five.
"Five thousand?" he asked with surprise.
I shook my head and said no, it was fifty thousand, and it was only higher, not lower.
"hiss....."
He took a breath and said immediately: "My boss! If you are so generous, then I, Liu Laosan, will have to use my special skills as a housekeeper!"
What's your unique skill, I ask?
He shook his coat sleeves, pointed at the mountain with one hand and said, "The art of finding dragons and tapping their acupoints."
I smiled after hearing this, pointed to a hill not far away and said, "Mr. Liu, what do you think of that location? I think it has a wide view, flat terrain, and faces the sun."
I was deliberately testing whether he had real abilities, because from a Feng Shui perspective, that place was by no means a treasure.
He raised his hand, looked at it and said, "Absolutely not! There is a place where there are four places on that hill! If someone's ancestors hide there, their descendants will definitely lose their luck and lose money!"
I nodded secretly.
One look at this man and he could tell that he definitely had real skills.
Although the hillside is flat facing the sun, it is located too high. Whenever it rains, water will accumulate, and even if the water flows, it will flow in all directions. This is the so-called land of four places. Future generations will not be able to retain wealth, even if they have money. It will also be astigmatized very quickly.
In my opinion, a good Feng Shui position must at least meet several hard conditions.
There are no irregularly shaped or messy hard stones within one foot of the ground. Regardless of their size, such angular stones are collectively called "evil stones." At twelve o'clock at noon, the sun cannot shine directly on the tomb. It is best to have the sun shine on the tomb at sunset. This is the best.
The field of vision is broad, with mountains in front and behind.
Surrounded by mountains and surrounded by water, the inner Qi emerges, the external Qi takes shape, and the Yang combines with Yin, which is Feng Shui.
The mountains manage the people but the water manages the wealth, and the talented and noble people stand in front of their doors.
All aspects must be taken into consideration, including the water mouth, orientation, sand shape, bright hall, dragon veins, etc. Dragon veins are dead and they will not run away. Many people can find them after several years of study, but not all dragon veins can bury people. , so the old saying goes that it takes three years to search for the dragon and ten years to tap acupuncture points. The key lies in the last tap.
If this is done well, generations of descendants will be distinguished. If it is not done well, generations of descendants will be mediocre.
In the afternoon, I followed Mr. Liu around the mountains and visited many places, but he rejected them all.
He said: "It happens to be seventeen or eighteen every day. Tomorrow and the next two days will happen to be seventeen or eighteen, so don't be impatient and look for it slowly. It's always right to look at a few more places. Now, master, are you willing to pay five Ten thousand gift money, then even if I break my leg running away, I will definitely find the best Feng Shui treasure land for your family!"
I was very moved when I heard that. Sure enough, it would be easier to get things done if you gave him money. If I had said that I would give him a gift of five hundred yuan, he would definitely not be so interested.
So I searched and searched like this. The sun was setting and the sky was getting dark.
"Mr. Liu! Walk slowly! Watch the road under your feet!"
"I know! Don't worry!" He said back to me from the front.
I was so cold that I couldn't help but take out my lighter and light a cigarette with my head down, but the moment I raised my head, I was stunned.
"Mr. Liu?"
"Mr. Liu!"
I quickly ran over to look back and forth!
There are still his footprints on the ground. Just when I lowered my head to light a cigarette, he disappeared...
